Tips for Participants

    Participants can choose to enter either as an individual or as part of a team.

    Team entries are for those wishing to walk, run or roll in support of the same cause. Team members do not have to walk or run together and they do not have to participate in the same venue (2k / 5k). Timed events are based on individual performance.

    Race day participants like to congregate with other team members. Take advantage of the pre-race time to meet and greet newcomers to the team. It's a good time to promote your cause and it's also a great time to thank team members in person for their participation and support.

    The TCF service area includes: Barbour, Grant, Preston, Pocahontas, Randolph & Tucker Counties. Out of area teams may participate but they are not eligible for TCF awards. Half of entry fees and 100% of sponsorships will be distributed to the team's cause regardless of area.
